Chapter 132: Not Afraid of Difficulties
Antonio Davis has not been as good as he was when he came to the Knicks, much to the disappointment of head coach Larry Brown, and his playing time has been compressed by the performance of the three rookie insiders. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
He played well in this game, rarely getting a double-double, but in overtime between the two sides, he suddenly crossed the technical statistics table and rushed to the stands.
His move was reminiscent of what happened at Auburn Hills Palace last season, when Artest rushed to the stands like Davis, causing a brawl with fans.
Fortunately, Antonio Davis did not make other moves, but also interrupted the game, and security personnel had to be dispatched to deal with it.
After the game restarted, Lehi was not affected by the incident, and the Knicks did not lose the lead.
Eddie Curry and Chandler of the Bulls were both on the verge of six fouls at the time, and Lehi hit a low single shot and then assisted Crawford to hit a three-pointer to seal the game.
With 19 points, 11 rebounds, 10 assists, 3 steals and 2 blocks, although he didn't score much, Lehi still used a comprehensive performance to help the team defeat the Bulls 106-102.
In the case of Antonio Davis, the Knicks coach and teammates have shown support for his actions.
He rushed up to protect his wife because of a verbal altercation between his wife in the stands and the Bulls fans.
"His wife and children are there, and if you see your family in danger, of course you rush to protect them. Because you are the man in the family, this is also a normal reaction as a man. ”
"It was just a man protecting his family, and it didn't resemble anything like the Auburn Hills Palace incident."
But even so, the league gave Antonio Davis a five-game ban for violating the rules.
The Knicks have also expressed their displeasure with the league's punishment, but in fact the team management has begun to seek a trade, not because of this, with the rise of several young people, Antonio Davis has less and less role in the team, and it is better to trade his expiring contract for a player who will be more useful to the team.
This is the NBA, the team has operations in addition to the game, and it's a business league.
After the only main defensive player on the interior was suspended, the Knicks' interior line was stronger and weaker defensively, but Marshin Gortat, who played less before, will have more opportunities.
Back in back-to-back games at home, the Knicks were once again in a big defeat.
When the lineup was not complete, when he encountered the Pistons team with the league's No. 1 record, Li Hai really had a feeling of powerlessness, and he was more depressed than encountering two difficult interior lines, and the Pistons two Wallaces stood inside, and they didn't even have a chance to shoot if they broke in.
They then lost to the Hornets, and Hornets rookie Chris Paul blew up several Knicks guards, sending Nate Robinson six fouls.
People are afraid of comparison, and New York fans used to think that Nate Robinson was very good, but when compared to Paul, the gap is too obvious.
Li Hai was also depressed, and he couldn't even score 10 points at the end of the game to turn the score around.
When he returned to New York, he went to find comfort, he originally thought that Marbury would not take the team forward during this time, but now it seems that it is still not so easy.
With Marbury missing, he was flanked a lot more.
He can pass the ball out when he is pinched, but if his teammates don't score, he is more entangled, whether to continue to share the ball or play alone, and he is not particularly proficient in this choice.
Larry Brown's defensive philosophy Li Hai agrees, but about the offensive guidance, he is not so convinced, in the NBA individual singles is a unique charm, Li Hai is not obsessed with individual singles, but he feels that the core of the team must have this kind of courage in critical moments.
In these few games, he also found that he still has problems in the handling of some details, his current strong body, there is still a lot of room for improvement, and the experience of another time and space can no longer help him on the court, he needs to continue to learn and make himself stronger.
After being praised by his girlfriend, he felt that he had regained his self-confidence.
There was no competition for the next three consecutive days, and after he finished training, he also took the time to go on a trip with Xia Weiliang about the company, Xia Weiliang has now completed the credits, and the thesis is almost done, and the main energy is put on the company.
Their company plans to open after the Chinese New Year, and when it's ready, it's just in time for the NCAA's March Madness, and they're going to try to sign their first players.
On Jan. 25, the Kings, who had just traded Peja Stojakovic to Artest for the Pacers, visited Madison Square Garden.
The Kings didn't have a good season either, with Stojakovic unable to lead the team to good results and Bunch Wells suffering an injury.
Artest has not been able to play for the Kings in this game, and it is rookie Francisco Garcia who replaces Stojakovic in the team's No. 3 position.
Marbury made his comeback much earlier than expected, and didn't give Lehi a chance to continue to be the No. 1 core.
And after seeing Chris Paul's performance, Larry Brown felt that Nate Robinson was better suited to be a bench bandit and put Quentin Richardson back in the starting position.
At the beginning of the game, Lehi let Garcia, a rookie who is keen on defense, understand the difference between the NBA and the university, and continuously cut points in front of the opponent.
And Kevin Martin, a second-year rookie from the Kings, also showed good offensive power.
Marbury, who has just returned, is a decent performer and is no match for Mike Bibby for the time being, while Eddie Curry on the inside meets Brad Miller, who has suffered a serious defensive dip, and neither seems to care about the other team's scoring.
In this case, the Kings lineup was not complete, and the Knicks did not take advantage of it, and at halftime, the two sides also fought to a 48-48 tie.
In the second half, because the Kings' power forward Kenny Thomas and Lehi were about the same height, in order to keep up with the opponent's rhythm in defense, the Knicks let Lehi go to the power forward position.
At the power forward position, the Kings also had no way to limit Lehi, allowing him to hit the mid-range in a row, and before the third quarter was over, Lehi scored a double-double of 20+10.
The Kings' Mike Bibby exploded with a powerful attack, scoring 30 points at the end of the third quarter and leading the Kings 66-64 into the final quarter.
Marbury clearly had some physical problems, and Lehi knew he still had to step up, and when he got back on the court, he didn't have any confusion. (To be continued.) )
